This Collection is aimed at both experienced cooks and newcomers who can be sure that with Delia's approachable style, they will be guided by a trusted hand through her fail-safe recipes. Including tips and ideas to help cooks of every ability, the reader is guaranteed delicious and rewarding results every time. Delia is a publishing phenomenon with sales of more than 18 million cookery books. This series is the first time her recipes have been arranged by subject.

About the Author

Delia Smith is Britain's bestselling cookery writer, whose books have sold over 21 million copies worldwide. Delia's first job as a cookery writer was for the Daily Mirror in 1969 - numerous phenomenal best sellers and television series followed including Delia Smith's Complete Cookery Course in 1978 and Delia's Christmas, Summer & Winter Collections in the 1990s. Towards the end of the decade Delia commenced work on a new major project - Delia's How to Cook, publishing three separate volumes and the accompanying tv series. The Vegetarian Collection and The Delia Collection followed. After a five year break concentrating on Norwich City Football Club (where she is a director) and Canary Catering, Delia returned triumphant in 2008 with a new BBC TV series and the fastest selling cookery book of all time 'Delia's How to Cheat at Cooking' - which has sold over 800,000 copies to date. Delia is married to the writer and editor, Michael Wynn Jones. They live in Suffolk.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful and useful book, 19 April 2006
By C. Speirs "A cooking fanatic" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Delia Collection: Baking (Hardcover)
I have most of Delia's book but this is the first book from "the Delia Collection" that I have read and used.

Firstly it is a beautiful book to look at. The cover, photography and very easy to follow recipes.

Secondly the recipes are stunning. Some of them I have baked before from her other books but just using this book is a pleasure so I use it for even familiar recipes. All of them have been well received.

Thirdly, even though the majority of the recipes are in previous books, it is a very handy to have the best of her baking recipes in one volume.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great results and easy to follow, 18 Feb 2006
By Jodi Hesmondhalgh "Pooky" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Delia Collection: Baking (Hardcover)
When I bought this book a few months ago I was a total novice cake chef; using Delia's fool proof recipes I have learnt how to make a variety of cakes and tray bakes. The recipes are laid out in a completely consistent fashion so you always know what temperature to preheat the oven to and what size tin you need to prepare at a quick glance; and Delia is very good at giving excellent hints and tips on the way through - how to measure out treacle without needing a full body wash for instance! There is at least one picture of every cake, so you know what you're aiming for; I've cooked most of them and have yet to find a single recipe in this book which isn't well received. Whether you're a beginner looking for guidance or a seasoned pro looking for some exciting ideas to broaden your repertoire, I would recommend this beautiful bargain book to you!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Delia Collection, Puddings, 23 Aug 2009
By Mrs. S. C. Bellord - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Delia Collection: Baking (Hardcover)
My book shelves are now groaning with Delia's books, but I am delighted to have this one. Such good cakes - and whenever I make one of the recipes there is never so much as a crumb left over! The recipes never fail but, then, Delia does indeed know her stuff. An excellent read too.
